Notes to Editors
About Old Mutual plc
Old Mutual plc is a holding company for several financial services companies. In March 2016, it announced a new
strategy of managed separation entailing the separation of its underlying businesses into independently-listed,
standalone entities.
The two businesses below are now independent from Old Mutual.
BrightSphere Investment Group, a US based institutional asset manager, which rebranded from OM Asset
Management in March 2018,
Quilter: Quilter (formerly Old Mutual Wealth) is a leader in the UK and in selected offshore markets in wealth
management, providing advice-led investment solutions and investment platforms to over 900,000 customers,
principally in the affluent market segment.
The remaining businesses of Old Mutual include the following:
OML (which includes Old Mutual Emerging Markets): OML has an ambition to become a premium financial
services group in sub-Saharan Africa and offers a broad spectrum of financial solutions to retail and corporate
customers across key market segments in 17 countries.
Nedbank: Nedbank ranks as a top-5 bank by capital on the African continent and Ecobank, in which Nedbank
maintains a 21.2% shareholding, ranks within the top-10 banks by assets on the African continent.
For the year ended 31 December 2017, Old Mutual reported an adjusted operating profit before tax of £2.0 billion.
